Fin!

:D!!! we have finally finished....cant quite believe it but we have finished!! Overall i think all 3 of us are pleased with the film and are in agreement that the decision we made regarding re-filming and changing the narrative was a good idea.
anyways...here is our audience feedback...

Good Points
  • "Titles flash onto the screen and the pan around the car"
  • "Liked the quick shot of person in back of car and loved the title cards - fitted well"
  • "Proper creepy music and really good use of props"
  • "Good narrative"
  • "Good titles, good when shots of paper and crossing off names and when the shots froze"
  • "Very good soundtrack and the tracking shot at the opening"
  • "Voice over was well good and also the storyline was good"
  • "Good music - strings. Good narrative, was left wanting to watch more"
  • "Good narrative ideas, loved the black and white shots"
  • "Good clues"
  • "Photo taking of people looked great"
  • "Liked calender days - good props also good camera shots and music"
  • "Good shots, music fitted well"
  • "Great pan in the car - very steady and good fast cut from reflection in mirror"
  • "Good music at the beginning, the msie-en-scene in the car and the extreme close up of keys in car"
  • "Props, maps and stuff in back of car and overall good idea"
  • "Good idea and good use of props"
  • "Music was effective, good mise-en-scene in back of car"
  • "Music built tension well, the mise-en-scene in the back of the car was really good and realistic"
  • "Titles flashing was really good, music works well and fitted well to the title cards"
  • "Flashing red titles and the flash within the car, the 'mess' in car was good"
  • "Liked the intersected shot of 'the Hathaways, shot around the car was good"
  • "Suspense building music and birds eyes view shot within the car"
And now the not so great stuff....
Bad points...
  • "Cant really hear the voice over"
  • "Sound was a bit iffy - voice over muffled. Mise-en-scene in the back of the car looked placed"
  • "Voice over slightly muffled"
  • "Cant hear the dialogue very well"
  • "Pans extremely slow and voice over not clear"
  • "Voice over"
  • "Although the voice over was good, it would of been clearer"
  • "Voice over slightly blurred"
  • "Voice over was dodgy at times, the start credits didn't really work"
  • "Second track was good but didn't fit, voice over"
  • "Cant really hear what the voice over is saying"
  • "Voice over was hard to hear and understand"
  • "Voiceover"
  • "Couldn't hear voice over 100%"
  • "Voice over not clear, quite short?"
  • "Quite short, out of focus"
  • "I found it a little confusing, net very long?"
  • "Voice over hard to hear"
  • "Voice over unclear"
  • "Nothing!"
  • "Muffled voice over"
  • "Cant hear voice over very well"
  • "Voice over is unclear"
So i think we have established from that that the voice over was not the best it could of been! But generally i feel like i agree with the vast majority of all of the points that have been made, especially the voice over, we all knew as a group that we would receive negative comments about this and it is on our 'what we would change/improve' list!
